Bad idea actually, for a lot of the inmates these games will be just like they are for most people.....ways of destressing. Better to allow them as a reward for good behavior and deny them as a punishment for bad.

Some politicians must grandstand, though....

Um...let's hypothesize that many of these people are inside because they "react differently" than the rest of society to the stimuli and situations they encounter. With little other experience to balance it, I'm not sure letting them enmesh themselves in crime role-playing video games is the best method of rehabilitation.
